A barista espresso machine with L58E group 'Made in Italy'

The manual espresso machine MaraX PL62X-EUCB is part of Lelit's "PRO LINE" range, designed for the barista seeking a more advanced espresso experience.

This coffee machine features a beautiful body in painted black stainless steel and light wood finishes. The offset L58E group paired with a heat exchanger. It offers the ability to fine-tune your extraction settings, but also comes with the "Coffee Slide" portafilter unique to Lelit.

The L58E extraction group from Lelit is based on the famous E61 group. Some internal parts have been redesigned by Lelit and assembled differently for better performance.
This name change (L58E) is to ensure that customers do not make modifications or repairs with standard E61 spare parts on their Lelit machines, which might not work or could damage the L58E group.

This manual espresso machine will also let you make Latte Art thanks to its "Cool Touch" semi-professional steam wand in stainless steel.

Its 58 mm brass extraction group places it in the semi-professional espresso machine category, as it must be paired with a suitable espresso grinder to achieve good results in the cup.

All LELIT espresso machines are made in Italy with materials sourced from Italy or Europe.

Every LELIT espresso machine (regardless of the range: evolutive or semi-pro) is also tested twice on the production line before being carefully boxed.

Quality materials and innovative technologies

The Lelit MaraX PL62X-EUCB is equipped with a large boiler of 1.8 L and a system with dual probe that maintains a constant temperature, limits waiting time between extractions and prevents overheating typical of classic HX systems.

Its professional extraction group of 58 mm diameter and the portafilter in brass of very high quality ensure good temperature stability.
